HUD creating

[BiGEdge]

Hey Starmade Freaks,

a day ago i saw a Video from Gaming with Saber. It was an Introduction of a testing Ship for design things.
well there was a very good idea doing a HUD displayed on a Glassblock.

Spoiler: Something like this

after a few tries i know now how it works.

On the left side there is a display-block.
now you can write a text (or HUD) over the right edge to create a HUD in the air or on a glassblock, or whatever you need.

Thanks for the idea Saber

Starmade has no Bugs, theyre all features

This is neat. It works even better (albeit less cool) without the glass, as you can see debris and certain weapon effects this way*

*Same thing minecraft suffered from: transparent blocks will still be rendered to the depth map

They're on to me. I'm going to explain how I did it in one of the future videos, and while it is currently listed as a "bug" I talked to schema about it and it sounds like it would be possible to create an actual block for it which would allow you to place them anywhere. I'll be working with him on this in the future, as the build progress.

Oh, and the Lionheart isn't a testing ship, it's my first capital build. =) I'm just going to be including a lot of cool (some of it experimental) stuff in it.
